Could be:

-lack of refrig charge (low head-pressure) due leaking or just too many years without a system check/eveac/recharge

- too much head-pressure, altho this usually come and goes as the AC system experiences an overheat on a hot for example.

- the thermostat has thrown in the claw, refusing to tell the AC control the car cabin temp is too high

- an electrical fault somewhere in the system, such as a break or open circuit

- compressor clutch has failed

I'd start by checking for volts (battery=+12v0 at the compressor clutch. If its there then the clutch is knackered. If not, then you need to check for a fuse failure (get a manual for quick location of said fuse-box). If the supply is OK,..next check for relay problems tho these rarely fail,..barring that, check for probs in the control system ie thermostat failed, or a protective shutdown is in effect etc...
